poses toxic effects on various organs. This study aimed to investigate the effects of PNMC, a substance to which both
animals and humans are exposed through diesel exhaust particles and widely used pesticide fenitrothion, on the number of
plasma cells in the spleen and also whether Noni could alleviate PNMC-induced spleen damage in rats by assessing spleen
index, plasma cell counts, and levels of TNF-á and iNOS. Eight rat groups were treated with different doses of PNMC,
either alone or combined with Noni, or only Noni, or vehicle (PBS with 0.05% Tween 80, s.c.) for five days. In histological
analysis, plasma cells were counted in methyl green-pyronin stained sections, and TNF-á and iNOS levels were assessed
immunohistochemically. PNMC exposure significantly reduced (P Page(s): 465-472ISSN: 0975-1009 (Online); 0019-5189 (Print)Appears in Collections:
